In Databricks, Jobs allow users to monitor the performance of tasks and troubleshoot issues with specific runs. When a notebook is running slowly as part of a Job, the tech lead can use the Runs tab in the Jobs UI to examine the task's performance. Runs tab in the Jobs UI: This tab shows a list of all runs associated with the Job. The tech lead can identify the specific run where the notebook is performing poorly and click on that run to access detailed information about its performance. Once the tech lead selects the active run, they can inspect the logs, metrics, and other performance details associated with that task, which will help them identify the cause of the slowdown, such as resource contention, inefficient code, or insufficient compute.

The tech lead can navigate to the Runs tab in the Jobs UI and click on the active run to review the processing notebook (Option C). This will allow them to inspect the details of the job run, including the duration of each task, which can help identify potential performance issues. There could be several reasons why a notebook is running slowly as part of a job. For instance, there might be a delay when the job cluster has to be spun up, or the table gets delta cached in memory and copies of files will be stored on local node’s storage. Even certain operations like pandas UDFs can be slow. Please note that the exact process may vary depending on the specific configurations and permissions set up in your workspace. It’s always a good idea to consult with your organization’s IT or data governance team to ensure the correct procedures are followed.

C In the Databricks Jobs UI, the Runs tab provides detailed information about the execution of each run in a Job. By clicking on the active run associated with the notebook running slowly, you can access the specific run details, including the notebook execution logs, execution duration, resource utilization, and any error messages or warnings.

B. They can navigate to the Tasks tab in the Jobs UI and click on the active run to review the processing notebook. The Tasks tab in the Jobs UI provides detailed information about each task in the job, including the task's execution time, the task's logs, and the task's output. By clicking on the active run for the notebook that is running slowly, the tech lead can review the task's logs and output to identify any issues that might be causing the slowdown. The Runs tab provides an overview of all runs of the job, but it does not provide detailed information about each task in the job.
